Is there any song that just makes you want to cry? There are songs that to me are sometimes so touching, and they bring tears to my eyes. OK, maybe it's a girl thing, but sometimes I just look for a song that will give me a good cry when I need one.

"She's Leaving Home" - The Beatles
It was played at my friend's funeral 5 years ago..and the lyrics relate to her death..she went home Wednesday morning from school, she said she was sick, she left the world that day, her body was found at 5:00...The Beatles was her favorite band.

Wednesday morning at five o'clock as the day begings
Silently closing her bedroom door
Leaving the note that she hoped would say more
She goes downstairs to the kitchen clutching her hankerchief
Quietly turing the backdoor key
Stepping outside she is free

She (We gave her most of our lives)
Is leaving (Sacraficed most of our lives)
Home (We gave her everything money could buy)
She's leaving home after living alone
For so many years
Bye bye

Father snores as his wife gets into her dressing gown
Picks up the letter that's lying there
Standing alone at the top of the stairs
She breaks down and cries to her husband
Daddy our baby's gone
Why would she treat us so thoughtlessly?
How could she do this to me?

She (We never though of ourselves)
Is leaving (Never a thought for ourselves)
Home (We struggled hard all our lives to get by)
She's leaving home after living alone
For so many years
Bye bye

Friday morning at nine o'clock she is far away
Waiting to keep the appointment she made
Meeting a man from the motor trade

She (What did we do that was wrong)
Is having (We didn't know it was wrong)
Fun (Fun is the one thing that money can't buy)
Something inside that was always denied
For so many years
Bye bye

The one song that always makes me cry is "Angel" by Sarah McLachlin. Of course, a boyfriend of mine committed suicide right when this song came out, so every time I heard it he would come to mind. That was years ago, but I still have to choke back tears when I hear those beginning chords.

I've always found that "Dream Of A Child" by Burton Cummings stirred up emotions, but I'm not sure why. The lyrics are interesting, but on the surface they don't seem to deal with tragedy as directly as some songs do, probably because they're describing dreams.

There hasn't been any song that could bring me to tears but hearing Go With the Flow by Queens of the Stone Age and then watching the video at the time of my friend's death last year (the 2nd in a 4 month span) and finding comparisons really made me shiver. It's been my favorite song and ringtone ever since.

Fallout boys terribleness makes me cry does that count? along with pretty much every newish band on MTV that has 0 talent and plays the same cords and sings the same lyrics over and over but its catchy so people like it. that also makes me cry.

It makes me cry when I watch that verizon commercial with Fallout boy. Cry in embarrasment...that guy is such a dork.

Hah...I don't like Fall Out Boy but I like watching the commercial because every time, that guy makes me laugh. At first I thought it was nerdy but then I thought of him as one of those prankster jocks I used to go to high school with and it makes me giggle.
